Hi,
I\'m having serious difficulties using Eclipse variables like
${project_loc} as arguments to my ant build. If I use anything like
-Dsrc=${project_loc} on the [main] tab of the ant runner/launcher, the
build runs once as expected but can\'t be changed anymore. As soon as I
open \'Create, run and manage configurations\' it reports [Targets]: Could
not run the external tool.
This is Eclipse 2.1 on Windows 2k sp3. No such problems with 2.0.2.
TIA,
Arjen

Thanks for the reply, however even with a selection in the workspace I
still get the same error. What else could I be doing wrong?

Darin,
Thanks for logging the bug. I'm still stuck though. The workaround you
describe allows me to run the Ant Build, but I still can't change the
configuration. Whenever I open the 'External Tools ...' dialog I get
'[Targets]: Could not run the external tool.' The [Run] and [Apply]
buttons are disabled. When I try to make any change to the configuration
the [Revert] button gets enabled, but I can't [Run] or [Apply]. The only
way to make changes to the configuration is to delete the configuration
and recreate it from scratch. Your workaround does not seem to address this.
Thanks,
Arjen

If I close the Run Confuration window ([Close] button) I get this error:
[Discard changes?]

saved because of the following error:
[Targets]: Could not run the external tool.
Do you wish to discard changes?
[Yes] [[No]]
Of course I don't want to discard the changes, but I'm given no other
option :-(

In the 20030422 integration build you can save configurations that are in an
error state.
You are correct, my workaround only allows you to run not change the
configuration. The bug precludes making and saving the changes.
The bug is fixed for the integration build that will occur next Tuesday.
So you can move to the 20030422 integration build which will let you save
you config or I could help you manually edit the .launch file for that Ant
build if you tell my what you are trying to change?

Darin,
I can wait for the integration build.
Thanks for the offer, but you've helped me more than enough as it is.

You don't have to wait...the build is already available.
You just have to download the build and use it :-)
This is the latest build that will allow you to save a config with errors:

Never mind..you are waiting for the real fix that will come out next week.

Darin,
And thus I did not wait. This build behaves a little better, but not as
I expected. I still get the error: '[Targets]: Could not run the
external tool. and more ...
I am now allowed to make changes to the arguments on the [Main] tab.
Once I edited the arguments the [Apply] button is enabled and I can
save. So far so good. I'm still experiencing two problems.
1. I can not specify/change a build target, since the list of targets on
the [Targets] tab remains empty. This only happens because of the error.
I don't see this behaviour when not using eclipse variables as arguments
on the [Main] tab.
2. Also, I still can't right click the build.xml file in the project and
use 'Run Ant ...' from the context menu. The [Run] button is and stays
disabled whatever I tried.
As a side note/question. As I'm new to using Ant and using Ant in
combination with Eclipse. Am I doing something completely out of the
ordinary? Is there another way that I should/can communicate Eclipse
context information like ${project_loc} to my Ant build script. I'm
using -Dsrc=${project_loc} because this was the first (sometimes not the
best) thing I could think of. How else could I create a generic
build.xml file in combination for use with Eclipse?
Thanks for your time and effort,
Arjen

The fix for the Targets tab will be in the build next Tuesday.
Both 1. and 2. will be fixed with the fix to the Targets tab
Your use of Ant seems reasonable...we just had a bug on the variable
expansion.
What are you using the src property for? Have you tried working with setting
properties relative to ${basedir}?
Sorry for the trouble

Darin,
I have not tried ${basedir} since I did not know about it. I tried now
and it actually does what I want. I'm using Ant to copy my files to my
production environment. ${basedir} allows me to do that without having
to specify any arguments. Great, even better! Thanks for the tip.
I'm happy though I found a bug that could be fixed in a next release.
Many thanks and keep up the good work.
